Merged
Conversation
…ssage (#1367) Add council_badge.py formatter that reads HUD state and builds compact badge strings like [◮ secu] [🧪 auth] [⚠1] during active council sessions. Integrated into pre-tool-use.py so badges appear in the spinner statusMessage alongside existing agent status and TDD indicators.

Review: APPROVE
CI Status: PASS (29/29, including e2e-plugin-docker and e2e-plugin-hooks)
Spec Compliance (#1367)
All 3 acceptance criteria met:
- ✅ PreToolUse emits compact council badges during active workflow requests via statusMessage
- ✅ Badges reflect current actor (eye + short name), focus (stage icon + label), and blocker status
- ✅ Single-line bracket format fits spinner/statusMessage constraints:
[◮ secu] [🧪 auth] [⚠1]
Code Quality
- Clean pure/impure separation:
shorten_agent_nameandformat_council_badgeare pure;build_council_badgereads state - Reuses
agent_status._load_agent_visualfor eye char lookup — no duplication - Focus label truncated at 12 chars; stage-to-icon mapping with default fallback
- Council badge only appears when
councilActive=true— no noise on unrelated tool calls - Silent exception handling follows existing hook resilience patterns
Test Coverage: 23 new tests
Unit (21):
shorten_agent_name: 7 tests — suffix removal, multi-word, single word, emptyformat_council_badge: 8 tests — all fields, no focus, blockers, truncation, stage icons, single-linebuild_council_badge: 6 tests — inactive, no agent, missing file, active with eye, no focus, fallback eye
Integration (2):
- Badge present in statusMessage when council active (with eye, short name, focus)
- No badge when council inactive
Issues Found: 0
No Critical, High, Medium, or Low issues found.
Recommendation: APPROVE
